Let’s put that theory to the test. What year do you think Jay Z was THE man in the game?
1996- Tupac
1997- Bad Boy (Biggie/Puff/Ma$e)
1998- DMX
1999- (no real clear cut top person)
2000- eminem
2001- Ja Rule
2002- Nas (you can argue Nelly/Ja/em)
2003- 50 Cent
2004- Kanye West
2005- Young Jeezy
2006- TI
2007- (no real clear cut top person)
2008- Lil Wayne
2009- (no real clear cut top person)
2010- Rick Ross
2011- Drake
2012- (no real clear cut top person)
2013- Kendrick Lamar
2014- (no real clear cut top person)
2015- Kendrick Lamar (you can argue Drake or Future or Fetty Wap)
2016- Drake
2017- The Migos
I’ll stop at 2017 since that’s the last time Jay dropped an album. What year(s) would you say in your opinion that he was the number 1 man in the game?
